One day, Ethan Smith was sitting in a hotel, struggling to absorb the qi from his surroundings.
The population of Shiglance City is dense, and the qi is scarce. After a whole day, the harvest for Ethan Smith was almost negligible.
“It seems big cities are not suitable for me, ” Ethan Smith thought to himself.
Having said that, Ethan Smith was very clear in his heart that although the qi in big cities is scarce, other resources are far beyond comparison to other cities.
In River City, a ten-year-old herb can be considered a precious item, but in Shiglance City, one can even see fifty or even a hundred-year-old King of Medicine herbs.
Ada Pauley called Ethan Smith on time.
She and Jaiden Lee had booked a restaurant early and were waiting for Ethan Smith inside.
Half an hour later, Ethan Smith and Edward Green arrived at the restaurant together.
Jaiden Lee had specifically chosen a private room in a high-end restaurant. The average cost per person in this restaurant was as high as 20,000.
For Jaiden Lee, this was definitely a huge expense.
When Ethan Smith entered, Jaiden Lee quickly stood up to greet him.
“Mr. Smith, you’ve arrived,” Jaiden Lee said with great respect.
This made Ethan feel a little embarrassed. He waved his hand and said, “No need to be so polite.”
Jaiden Lee grinned, “Sorry, I’ve been in the society for a long time, and I’m used to bowing and scraping in front of people with higher status than myself.” Ethan Smith did not comment on this, as it was indeed reality.
Afterward, Jaiden Lee called the waiter and started serving the dishes.
The meal was extremely extravagant, with Boston Lobster and French Foie Gras, almost all of which Ethan had never eaten before.
“Ethan, what exactly do you do now? You’re so amazing that even Leonard Schultz gives you face,” Ada asked during the meal.
Ethan thought for a while and said, “I have no particular identity, just an ordinary person.”
“Cut it out, you’re still so low-key,” Ada rolled her eyes.
Ethan simply smiled, not explaining further.
When they were halfway through the meal, Ethan asked Edward to pay the bill in advance.
By the end of the meal, Jaiden Lee was slightly drunk.
He patted his chest and said, “Mr. Smith, after the meal, I’ve got something arranged.”
Ethan quickly shook his head, “No need, let’s go back to sleep after the meal.” “No way!” Jaiden Lee stubbornly said.
“I know that people like you are probably tired of bars and nightclubs, so I’ll take you to see the special features of our Shiglance City!” Jaiden Lee said with some pride.
“Special features?” Ethan raised his eyebrows, seemingly interested.
Jaiden Lee whispered, “What Shiglance City is most famous for is the Underground Boxing Ring! The fights there are all black-fist fights, and there are countless experts!”
After saying that, Jaiden Lee proudly patted his chest, “Mr. Smith, to be honest, although I seem skinny, I’m also an expert. Not even three or five people can get close to me!”
Hearing this, Edward Green next to Ethan couldn’t help but let out a snicker.
This only fueled Jaiden Lee’s determination to go to the Underground Boxing Ring. He glared and said, “You don’t believe me, do you? I’ll show you later!” “Fine, fine, we’ll listen to you, ” Ethan reluctantly agreed.
However, Ethan was indeed quite interested in the Underground Boxing Ring.
Ever since he heard Edward mention Inner Strength Experts last time, Ethan wanted to see just how skilled these Inner Strength Experts really were.
After the meal, the group left the restaurant together. Ada drove them towards the Underground Boxing Ring.
The car quickly arrived at the entrance of a hotel.
Ethan nodded his head. He glanced at the parking lot and saw that there were indeed quite a few luxury cars parked nearby.
This also added a few points of interest to the Underground Boxing Ring for
Then, Jaiden Lee led Ethan and the others towards the Underground Boxing Ring.
At the entrance, there were two well-dressed burly men guarding the door.
Ethan took a closer look and found that both of these men were quite capable.
“It seems this Underground Boxing Ring is not simple at all,” Ethan thought to himself.
After Jaiden Lee negotiated with the two burly men, he waved, “Mr. Smith, we can go in now!”
The group walked into the underground floor with big strides.
As soon as they entered, Ethan heard the noises coming from inside.
There were shouts and curses, and the layout of the Underground Boxing Ring was not much different from a bar.
Scattered tables and booths were arranged around the room, where people could drink and eat.
The only difference was that the dance floor in the front had been replaced by a fighting ring.
“Mr. Smith, come with me.” Jaiden Lee waved his hand, and the group sat down at a booth.
No sooner had they sat down than a waiter came over with a drinks menu.
Ethan glanced at it casually and found that the drinks here were ridiculously expensive, with a bottle of beer costing close to one hundred dollars.
At this moment, two burly men on the stage were swinging their fists, and each of their punches seemed to aim at their opponent’s vital points!
Every time someone fell, there were excited shouts from the surrounding crowd, almost indistinguishable from an arena.
“Mr. Smith, you can place bets here, too, on which fighter will win. Do you want to play?” Jaiden Lee grinned.
Ethan waived his hands, having no interest in gambling whatsoever. “What’s so fun about these places? It’s too cruel,” Ada frowned, unable to bear it and turned her face away.
“Oh, you don’t understand. This is called the most primitive combat! The most primitive violence!” Jaiden Lee said excitedly.
He stared at the fight on stage, his hands involuntarily swinging along.
Unfortunately, Jaiden Lee seemed like an amateur.
“Hey, isn’t this Jaiden Lee?”
Just then, a woman wearing an ultra-mini skirt and big wavy hair suddenly walked over.
She walked straight up to Jaiden Lee with a mocking expression on her face: “Jaiden Lee, do you think you’re worth coming to a place ?” Seeing this woman, Jaiden Lee’s face instantly turned ugly.
He said coldly, “It has nothing to do with you.”
The mini-skirted woman snorted and looked towards Ada beside her, sneering, “This is your new girlfriend? What, had a change of heart and developed a taste for good girls?”
“A good girl? She clearly pretends. Behind her back, she might have been played out by others!” Another woman in a tight skirt beside the mini-skirted
